The Memphis native posted the pictures on Instagram with the caption, “If I Was A Duck Boot I’d Wanna Wear Me Too,” with a duck and several tongue emojis. Additionally, he included the hashtags “#2Sexy” and “#SLUTSZN.” NLE concluded the text with ‘-SIR F*CKALOT’ and tagged the company @fctrylab.
Furthermore, the rapper’s caption is a play on words from a line in his new single, ‘SLUT ME OUT 2.’ It follows NLE’s most successful track, ‘SLUT ME OUT,’ which was released last year.
Moreover, in the photo, he appears to be naked with only jewelry covering his lower area. Additionally, the bathtub is littered with yellow rubber duckies. He is also adorning his new Duck Boot shoes.
